Sulfuric Acid
This product is used in the manufacturing process of agriculture fertilizers. Liquid, colorless or with a slightly yellow (turbid) color, the Sulfuric Acid is corrosive, therefore the use of the Self-Protection Equipment (EPIs) is recommended to avoid direct contact with skin.
Transportation is made on tanker trucks.
The Sulfuric Acid that Votorantim Metais produces complies with the ASTM E 1011 rules.
Liquefied Sulfur Dioxide
The Liquefied Sulfur Dioxide is used as a bleacher for cellulose, sugar and kaolin. It is also used as a food products preservative.
Since it is a corrosive product, the use of self-protection equipment (EPIs) is recommended, so as to avoid direct contact with skin.
Like other liquid products from Votorantim Metais, the Sulfur Dioxide is transported on tanker trucks.
